Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Great photos Wayne, especially of the judge/lawyer (reminds me a bit of the judge in Pink Floyd's "The Wall" movie), although I can't make out what the figure at the bottom right is.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Great stuff Wayne!

Love the 1st, 2nd and last!

The 2nd is just amazing, great use of the stage lighting, this would also really work with two separate images, one of the judge and the other the accused!

The only thing I find with the 3rd is I have not focal point in the frame personally.

i like the moments captured in the 1st and 3rd one 3rd one compsoitionally being the most interestign what an atmospheric scene

although the judge and lawyer shot may be more dramatic the fact you cant see anything at the bottom makes me not appreciate it as much as the others
maybe you can bring up some more detial or something

othwerwise great subject matter and masterfully captured

You've captured the lighting and emotion in that first shot perfectly. Interesting stuff.

thanks for the comments everyone. The pics will be published in local papers, though not sure as of when but the promo officer has said that he'll scan the articles and send it to me :D

All except the last were with the 70-200 f2.8 IS. The last one was shot with the 24-105 L f4 (which incidentally I'm dumping for the 24-70 f2.8).

Also for the Melbourne members, go along and watch the show. Even though it's a local theatre company the production and final product is just as good as if it was performed at The Princess Theatre or Broadway even!
